-- 09 -- Process
>> Like classification, which is discussed in the previous chapter, process writing seeks to simplify a lengthy or complex subject by breaking it down into component pieces.
>> In the case of process writing, the subject is a long or complex event, and the components are steps in the process.
>> Earlier in this book, for example, we discussed the writing process as a series of tasks. From choosing a topic to publishing a final draft, we have arranged related tasks into major steps, such as gathering details and making a plan in the "getting started" step.
>> Depending upon audience and purpose, a process essay may be merely a general description, a more detailed explanation, or a very detailed set of instructions.
>> Logical thinking and careful choice of words are always essential for this sort of writing.
